Dear friends and ENS@T members,

It is our pleasure to invite you to attend the 18th ENS@T Scientific Meeting, which will be held in Uppsala November 21-22, 2019.

As tradition, the program will include scientific contributions as oral or poster presentations on the four traditional areas of ENS@T interest: adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC), pheochromocytoma/ paraganglioma (PPGL), aldosterone producing adenomas  (APA) and non-aldosterone producing adrenocortical adenomas (NAPACA) including adrenal Cushing’s and adrenal incidentaloma. The updates on the collaborative projects as well as the proposals for new ones are planned during the Working Group Meetings, which are scheduled consecutively in order to permit the participation to each of them. A major time slot (90 min) is reserved for poster presentation and discussion. Finally, at the end of the meeting, we have scheduled a slot for networking. During this time, you can meet with colleagues to discuss ongoing and future projects. A very preliminary program can be found HERE (click to open or save), a detailed agenda will be emailed to you all and will also be uploaded on our website soon.

We hope to replicate the highly interactive, stimulating, friendly and collaborative atmosphere, which has characterized the previous ENS@T meetings and we are confident that the scientific level will be as high as in the tradition of the ENS@T Scientific Community.
